Ten years ago, the Ye family of Yuncheng was betrayed and wiped out overnight. The Ye couple protected Ye Ci as they fled, but were brutally murdered. With nowhere left to turn, the young Ye Ci set a fire, hoping to die alongside his enemies. As he hovered between life and death, Tang Jiaoran appeared and rescued him from the inferno. Ten years later, Ye Ci returned in glory, determined to avenge the blood feud and repay Tang Jiaoran for saving his life.
When he saw Tang Jiaoran and the little girl in her arms, Ye Ci's heart softened completely. His savior from all those years ago turned out to be the sister of one of his former fellow soldiers. What a coincidence... as if fate had arranged it.
